Peterborough United boss Darren Ferguson has revealed that the club have signed Stoke City midfielder Florent Cuvelier on loan for the remainder of the season.
The 20-year-old is yet to make a first-team appearance for the Potters, but is held in high record by Stoke boss Tony Pulis.
"He is a very good technical player who can play anywhere in midfield. He has been with Walsall this season and did very well," Ferguson told the club's official website.
"We thought we could perhaps do something for next season, but obviously it has been accelerated because I have injuries to Davide Petrucci and Alex Pritchard, so that has made my mind up.
"He wanted to come here, he plays football the right way and I believe we will suit each other. He will go straight into the squad on Saturday for the game with Cardiff City at London Road."
Cuvelier has previously spent two loan spells with Walsall.
